Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 11488
word processor aborts with "An unrecoverable error has occurred" opening file
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:56:16 UTC
I am running SuSE 8.1 using KDE 3.0. The error is reproducable. It is s simple MS word 2000 document that can be opened used Win2K and word 2000. It does contain text that was pasted into it as unformated text. I would like to attach the file for you to look at so you can evaluate what is causing this rather nasty user experience. Please contact me at robert.hunchberger@praxis-sol.com and I will send it to you. Bob H.
Created attachment 4736 [details] this is the file that causes Write to file when attempting to open it.
this is a privilege issue on the /opt/OpenOffice.org directory tree and is appparently related to the Local install. It is not a Word processing issue. When I set the privs on the /opt/OpenOffice.org dir tree to 775 the ability to read the file without OOo erroring out went away. So this issue can be CLOSED from the perspective of the Word Processor. There still may be an issue with the Local Install priv setup either as part of the install or as part of the SuSE 8.1 install.
Thank you for using and supporting OOo. Closing issue as requested. SuSE support database has some OOo installation support documentation that may be worth looking at. The installation manual that is used for the OOo binaries that are downloadable from this site also has instructions on multiuser installations.
